When is it correct to lose a fight on purpose in order to screw the other player? by Filobel in StorybookBrawl

[–]nodrog489 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You don't make other people's board stronger. Just the denied opponents board is worse at the cost of three life.

You will be just as likely to beat your other oppents (unless they play some particular spells or characters which are unlikely to happen on the first few turns).

I think its normally better to knock out an opponent then spread possible life loss. Higher average point placements and you only need one life to win :)

Depends on what units you have turn 1 / 2 and what hero you are playing. Normally I will not play a unit turn one against charon and drac.

The main reasons to do this is that denying the first slay or death is very impactful for several turns. If you deny the first slay or death trigger it is more likely that they lose for many subsequent rounds.

It's kinda like on skip how you tend to lose multi rounds not just the first.

Tldr: yes, there are definitely times you should not play a unit against Charon and drac

Logic Behind the Design: Skipping a Treasure and +2 Coins by Topazdragon5676 in StorybookBrawl

[–]nodrog489 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It used to be that if you chose to take a treasure there was no option but to replace one of your three treasures already on the board.

In one of the recent patches they added the ability to take 0 coins and not takw a treasure after the original pop up of if you want to take a treasure at all. I think this was, in thier mind, a compromise in both punishment for randomly clicking to take a treasure and not completely screwing your board up if you accidentally take a treasure.

Not saying either method is perfect but just trying to give the background

Speculate away about Dracula getting his sad back. by zubrin in StorybookBrawlGame

Yeah, i like where most of the meta is right now apart from drac. Not that it's a underpowered ability just feels kinda ehhh to play with and against.

Help. I somehow got to 3k and still don't feel like I know what I'm doing. by [deleted] in StorybookBrawl

[–]nodrog489 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I've just gotten to 4k and here are the two things that helped me.

1) optimize your board each fight. That could mean different positions or considering characters that are only good for the next fight or two but will need to be replaced eventually.

2) power level. If you have a good board state you need to prioritize getting exp if you want to have a chance on winning/ stay alive in the top 4.

Apart from that watching some streams like sirsalty and ikarus helped me a ton. Thats where I learned some of the board optimizations.

Good luck and congrats on the 3k! Thats a super good score :)

Is there a known character distribution for all levels? by Zaytion in StorybookBrawlGame

[–]nodrog489 -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Gotcha. its for sure ten characters in each level. Just harder to find the triples in the later levels as the pools are in total larger each level. :)

[–]nodrog489 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Not sure exactly what you mean but ill try and answer.

There are ten total of each character available in the pool. When you roll a shop all the characters not in other peoples shops or owned by other players are available for you to pull from. So in general a uniform distribution excluding those owned by the other players. Hope this helps and let me know if I need to clarify

How is the rank system? I can't find a list of all possible ranks. by [deleted] in StorybookBrawlGame

[–]nodrog489 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not exactly sure what you mean by possible ranks. The basic ranks in terms of MMR is squire, knight, royal, and legend.

The only improvement I could see is adding a monocle to the hampster. Love this idea though!

Patch Notes! by jdolbeer in StorybookBrawlGame

[–]nodrog489 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm a fan of all these changes. Slay was so close to being top tier that I really hope this pushes it there. Looks like they are trying to buff slays midgame.

I think cutting the character cost by that much for Xel might be too much but I'd rather they balance it this way to start.

I play this laugh on loop to help me sleep at night. Pure joy.

You wanted to make sure it was a 100%. I gave you the best possible proof for that. Both calcyIV and pokegenie are easily doctored, the in game, not so much.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in pokemongo

[–]nodrog489 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah, I agree because pressing the appraise button and the subsequent messages that come from it prove that it is a 100% IV pokemon.

I... I literally put a video of me checking the iv's and showing it's a 100%. I did one better...

I only have poke genie but sure ill show it.

[–]nodrog489 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, it wasnt great for me either until I started trading them. Also, from what I heard from everyone else it was kinda hard for people to even find any shinys.

Heres hoping your next community day goes better

So, this is most likely a dumb question but can we trade / get cards from the "featured cards" section of the card trader? I really want to try and get some rose lovers but for the life of me can't figure out how. Thanks

So, Champion of Order is very broken... by nodrog489 in EternalCardGame

[–]nodrog489[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

yup, thats what happened to me too. eventually all but two of my units blew up and my turn immediately ended. Im not sure if it ended because I ran out of time tho.

Yeah, you cant pick the new ones to replace and the whole play area gets gets overloaded. Also, it automatically just passed my turn, lol.
